The Outsider

When the body of an 11-year-old boy is found in the Georgia woods, detective Ralph Anderson launches an investigation into the gruesome murder.

During a surreptitious late-night visit with Terry, Ralph admits to being baffled by conflicting physical evidence. An unexpected tragedy throws the investigation into a tailspin. Glory tries to soothe her daughter.

Frustrated by their lack of progress, Ralph and GBI detective Yunis Sablo meet with Alec and Howie, who suggest bringing in unorthodox PI Holly Gibney. Jack has a hair-raising experience at a remote barn. Glory deals with fallout at her daughters' school.

Holly pursues a possible connection to an eerily similar case and gains valuable insight from local former detective Andy Katcavage. Glory faces increased scrutiny in her daily life, and Jack's behavior grows progressively more erratic.

Holly presents her unusual theory about the connection between two other mysterious child murders and the Frankie Peterson case. While Ralph remains skeptical, Jeannie’s attempt to include Glory in their group of concerned citizens backfires.

Holly makes a calculated attempt to help a volatile but conflicted Jack, while their whereabouts are tracked by Ralph and Alec. Glory considers Howie's suggestion on how to secure her family's financial future.

Sensing something ominous afoot, Claude reconnects with his brother in Tennessee. Holly, Ralph, Yunis and Andy follow him in hopes of isolating the evil force and thwarting its next kill. A visiting family avoids danger.

After obscuring their true purpose in town from local police, Ralph and Yunis interview witnesses from the cave festival, while Holly and Andy visit the scene. The group considers its next move as Claude deals with the weight of his role.

The group finds itself in a climactic showdown in their last-ditch, desperate attempt to root out El Coco.
